Network Discovery
However, if you are using your Peregrine appliance in Basic Discovery mode, the
number of devices (scan files) change considerably. For more information on
Basic Discovery licenses, see
Basic Discovery License on page 92
Important:
If you are using the Desktop Inventory delta scanning feature, the
amount of disk space required for scan files doubles because both
the enriched scan and the original scan are kept. On appliances
where disk space may be fully used, the number of devices to be
managed may need to be reduced by half. For example, a large
appliance may only be able to support 30,000 devices. Peregrine
estimates that an average scan file would be 270 KB.
